Season 1 Characters: Part 1

I'm going to begin this series of Game of Thrones posts with a guide to the Characters of Season 1. I didn't realise just how many there were so I will be doing this in at least 2 parts if not more.Enjoy, and if there is anything you'd like me to add or you see a mistake I might have made. Let me know :)
Note: I have not included all minor characters from season 1 as there are far too many and a lot of them are only in 1 episode.Game of Thrones: Season 1 - Characters Those from WinterfellEddard Stark - Lord of Winterfell, Husband of Catelyn and close friend of King Robert Baratheon.
